Just to make sure, I removed the ourdoings pipe, created a new pipe url in ourdoings and then added back in pixelpipe; same behaviour.

Pixelpipe sent empty values to OurDoings:

((media . "") (title . "") (message . ""))

I like it better when it's my bug, because then I can fix it. But in this case it appears to be a Pixelpipe bug. I'll report it to them. I'll also give feedback to Dropbox about handling the bunch-of-photos use case better.

Sounds like Pixelpipe beats Dropbox for this use. I'll investigate what happened with the test Pixelpipe upload and get back to you by email.

As an app to take photos, review them and then upload, Pixelpipe seems better. But for some reason, my test upload from the Pixelpipe app did not work. With this app, one can take say a bunch of photos and select a few and hit upload.

The test photo from Dropbox app on the other hand, worked pretty well. However taking photos and uploading from this app appears as an afterthought. You take a photo and hit 'Use' and it automatically gets uploaded to Dropbox and appears in OurDoings.
